I felt the same way about the Paige jacket. This was the only option I could come up with based on what was in my closet at the time. I didn't but the jacket because at the time I had lots of black jackets/sweaters etc. I didn't think about using over a dress or skirt.....

oh, I wanted to get Paige but I wasn't sure what to wear it with....cuuute set A JCrew SA wore it with a dress, it looked really cute too
